Internationally known and one of the most influential philosophers of his day (and for a time almost a cult figure in France, where his lectures drew huge crowds), Henri Bergson (1859-41) led a revolution in philosophical thought by rejecting traditional conceptual and abstract methods, and arguing that the intuition is deeper than the intellect. His speculations, especially about the nature of time, had a profound influence on many other philosophers, as well as on poets and novelists; they are said to have been the seed for la recherce de temps perdu by Marcel Proust (whose cousin was Bergson's wife). Though his ideas were sometimes difficult to follow, Bergson was also a fine stylist, who once declared, "there is nothing in philosophy which could not be said in everyday language," and who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1927.In Time and Free Will, written as his doctoral thesis, Bergson tries to dispel the arguments against free will. These arguments, he shows, come from a confusion of different ideas of time. Physicists and mathematicians conceive of time as a measurable construct much like the spatial dimensions. But in human experience, life is perceived as a continuous and unmeasurable flow rather than as a succession of marked-off states of consciousness -- something that can be measured not quantitatively, but only qualitatively. And because human personalities express themselves in acts that cannot be predicted, Bergson declares free will to be an observable fact. Students and teachers of philosophy are sure to welcome this inexpensive reprint of Bergson's classic, influential essay, long a staple of college philosophy courses.

Quite good for costume quality
Color: Gold, Size: Medium
For eighty bucks this definitely isn't bad. It arrived slightly out of shape but after a few days on a good hanger, it all fell into place. I had no issues with fit--the medium wears as expected (6', 38" chest). It's a fun jacket, it's not far off from the product photos, and it certainly makes an impression. While it doesn't feel 'premium' per se, it doesn't feel cheap either. The liner is solid enough that the sequins don't feel too scratchy or restrictive. Definitely a niche item--certainly more of a costume piece than something you'd wear to make a bold impression at a formal event, and while not inexpensive, it delivers for the price and I don't think you could do much better for $80.

Stylish
Size: Large, Color: Black, Size: Large, Color: Black
Fits like we had hoped. We purchased another one different brand and it was terrible quality. But this jacket was my son’s style and comfortable. Just what he was looking for

Shiny Small Sequin Blazer
Size: Small, Color: Black
This tuxedo blazer is one for the looks. It’s shiny black 100% polyester material, with a mesh net on the left side that has dark gold plastic sequins sewn on in a tree pattern. The material is taut with seams at the sides and the middle of the back. There is a single button. There are no pockets outside nor inside the jacket. The quality will hold up and is a decent value for the money.
This was for a 5’5 male of slim build and fit quite snug. The measurement in inches: 17 - shoulders; 23 - sleeves; 27-1/2 nape to bottom of blazer.

Size a tad small
Size: Large, Color: Black
So many compliments so don’t buy this if you don’t like people to notice. I’d say fits a tad on the small side.
